Ana Lucia from Lost. She is flawed, she makes frequent mistakes... she lost her child and fiance and killed for revenge and ran away from the one person willing to help her but she relented, realized her fault, and was trying to fix it when the plane crashed. She shot Shannon and owned up to it. And despite her hatred for the Others, she had grown past her burning need for revenge and in the end couldn't bring herself to kill Ben.
She is strong, stubborn, determined, and protective. Everything she did she did to protect her people against impossible odds. She is proud to a fault but can and will admit when she's done the wrong thing and can put all of her pride and fear aside to apologize.
Why she is so hated by fandom, I will never guess. Maybe they don't like Michelle Rodriguez. Maybe Kate filled their "tough chick" quota. Maybe Ana Lucia didn't cave in or fall apart in girly tears as soon as a man came along and that makes her a cold bitch. (Meanwhile Kate falls the fuck apart as soon as there's ~*~romance~*~ in the air and everyone still thinks she's ~*~so strong~*~... but I digress)
